Occupy Monsanto. It's getting absolutely tragic the way that company is taking over all the food in the world. Those who control the food control the world. It's time to start doing what other countries around the world are doing, saying no to GMO and holding Monsanto responsible for their crimes. It's time people.

It makes me sad to see this company taking so much control of the worlds food supply using government assistance.

For an extremely interesting insight into 'Monsatan' and its insidious working practices, please do try to make some time to watch the very thought provoking and revealing documentary film : "Controlling Our Food" ; http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6262083407501596844 et fiat lux ...

Also, we are now getting Monsanto's herbicide poison directly into our wheat:

[quote]I have been a wheat farmer for 50 yrs and one wheat production practice that is very common is applying the herbicide Roundup (glyposate) just prior to harvest. Roundup is licensed for preharvest weed control. Monsanto, the manufacturer of Roundup claims that application to plants at over 30% kernel moisture result in roundup uptake by the plant into the kernels. Farmers like this practice because Roundup kills the wheat plant allowing an earlier harvest.

A wheat field often ripens unevenly, thus applying Roundup preharvest evens up the greener parts of the field with the more mature. The result is on the less mature areas Roundup is translocated into the kernels and eventually harvested as such.

This practice is not licensed. Farmers mistakenly call it “dessication.” Consumers eating products made from wheat flour are undoubtedly consuming minute amounts of Roundup. An interesting aside, malt barley which is made into beer is not acceptable in the marketplace if it has been sprayed with preharvest Roundup. Lentils and peas are not accepted in the market place if it was sprayed with preharvest roundup….. but wheat is ok.. This farming practice greatly concerns me and it should further concern consumers of wheat products.[/quote]

Or, y'know, read what the scientific community REALLY has to say about GM foods and stop swallowing the propaganda of a multi-billion dollar industry that wants people to pay more money for less and lower quality food.
